For over 50 years, the World Bank Group Young Professionals Program (WBG YPP) has recruited some of the brightest young minds to contribute to our top priorities, from poverty eradication, social development and climate change, to the current response to the COVID-19 crisis. If you are 32 or younger with a passion for international development or finance, graduate level education, relevant work experience, language skills and leadership potential, register for this event to learn more about the WBG YPP.
